Can you use this product to clean the inside of the pot (spun copper)? I have stains from whipping cream and eggs in it.

I wpuld guess that it would clean it to get the spots out, however you probably would need to soak i and re soak it several times in dawn to make sure the chemical is not remaining.

I have the product. Like it but my copper pieces are for decoration only. Sorry. Call the company for an answer.

Sorry, this was purchased as a gift and sent directly to a family member; however, I like barkeepers friend for cleaning such things. But if you have any doubt about causing damage to the pan I would contact Cuisinart directly.

Foil will disrupt the heat flow when cooking directly into foods. Cast iron is a great cooking surface by itself. You CAN wash it, but the best practice is to lightly abrade the surface with a plastic scrubby, maybe a very dilute soap solution, then rinse, dry thoroughly, then coat with mineral oil (won't go rancid), heat to about 200 deg for an hour, cool, store. That's all it takes. A slight food residue after cleaning won't be a problem because heating it just carbonizes it, adding to the protective layer. Keep doing it for a decade, or five, and you'll have an outstanding tool!!

CV....i am so glad you asked. I had bought a cream copper cleaner especially for this sink. When i rubbed the cream on, the finish started to come off, leaving a shiny, uneven copper color in place of the beautiful patina. It was so bad, I ordered another sink (not the same one, but very similar copper with a rope design around the rim--i actually like it even more). I discarded the copper cleaner and have put the renaissance cream on the new sink to protect it. I haven't used ANYTHING to clean it, considering dawn or a mild soap. so, buyer, beware!!

If you are talking about but the inside, it can't be cleaned other than a descaling with vinegar. The outside can be cleaned like new with any good quality copper polish such as brasso or never dull wadding which can be purchased at any hardware store. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Bill

Hello, Thank you for your question. The Barkeepers Friend website list the surfaces that can be used for cleaning with this agent. I'm assuming your pot is enamel coated. While the website information lists porcelain, ceramic, as material surfaces the product will work with, it does not have specific information on enameled coating. However, if enamel is comparable with porcelain or ceramic, it MIGHT be safe but I would test a small area first. There are many materials listed that can be used with this product, even copper. Barkeepers seems to be an all around cleaning product. If you would like more information, you can visit the Barkeepers Friend website. Hope this helps. Thanks for allowing me to be helpful. Regards, James

I clean all my stainless steel pots and pans with it and it works beautifully. If the stove is stainless steel it should work for that too. But I don't have a stainless steel stove so I can't say for sure.

I can't imagine under what circumstances you would need to clean inside the wand. If you have very hard water and the wand has calcified somehow, I suppose that could be a problem, possibly an unfixable one. But a stainless steel object that has had nothing but boiling water forced through it is going to be as clean as it gets. By attempting to "clean" it with anything I can think of, you'd only make it less clean.

Yes yes..my mom became expert in polishing very old, tarnished copper pots and kettles.i.that she bought in the junk stores in 50's England.the only hesitation I have is does your copper have a coating of any sort,don't know about that. Sharon

I would try MAAS. It removes stains and polishes without any damage. I have tried other suggested products and concoctions and this is the only one that I feel safe using on my precious metals. It is amazing!

If you really want to polish your copper pans use ketchup - it does a great job on copper.

No- as susanne said, the inside comes in contact with your food. You want it to have a somewhat matte look - just the copper - the polish is on the outside where it doesn't react with food. Patina is an entirely different thing - that's the darkening that occurs naturally with copper. As you use your pan, you'll usually use an acid (i.e. lemon juice) that will keep that part touched by food very "clean" looking - if you want the rest to look that way, just use lemon juice and salt (or copper cleaner).

Yes, it is the best copper cleaner I have used. It restores tarnished copper to its original shine. Be sure to use water with the application and wipe completely dry.

No. It is for cast iron. It covers rust and blackens cast iron so it has a new look with a subdued polished look. Definitely would NOT work on stainless steel. There are cleaners designed specifically for stainless steel. I have been able to clean stainless steel cookware inside as well as on "finished" outer side with "Bar" brand cleanser and obtain a nice shine and without scratching the finish. You might try that in a not too evident area and see if it would work. Good luck.

Don't recall if I answered this or not.....sorry if duplicate....hand wash with warm water and dish soap using scrub spounge. Also Le Creuset makes a cleaning compound "Le Creuset 12-Ounce Enameled Cast-Iron Cleaner" that will remove and stain/discoloration. It works well on enameled stove tops too.

I've made homemade pasta sauce and chili in my big pots no problems with stains.. Just a 20-30min soak in really soapy hot water
